Hello everyone. I just had my worst workshop ever. I'm going to bed. Someone please wake me up when this week is over. =/
Yeah. I'm real tired of this literary fiction bullshit. Me and another girl were talking about how horrible our peers are at workshopping.
I used a "device" in my story that people didn't like. So they spent an ENTIRE HOUR talking back and forth about how they didn't like the device.
Fail. It's been my favorite short so far and I didn't get a single good comment. Not one.
Okay, just say screw it and screw them! JK
Srsly, take it with a grain of salt and move on. We know and YOU know you are a talented writer who is agented....I'm sure most or all of them can't say that.
That sucks that it went down like that. I had the BEST writing workshops in grad school....like they made me take my dreams of writing srsly again.
Hi all.....this thread piqued my interest so I thought I'd throw my hat in the ring.....but I DO apologize I'm a little lost. Anyone interested in helping a newbie along?? Thanx in advance!
HI there, Moni!!
We'll be happy to answer any questions you have...don't hesitate to ask.
Quick run thru....
If you want to "rep" someone, just lick on those little scales under your avatar and then write in your comment. To see your reps, go to USER CP and you can see them as well as change your siggie, insert an AVI, etc.
We get together and write sometimes to give feedback....we call it YAWN, and it's over in the SYW or Share Your Work thread....
